What is the Rent-A-Room Relief Scheme?

The Rent-A-Room Relief Scheme gives landlords or tenants, the opportunity to rent out a spare room within their home, tax free, for up to €14,000 per year.

It is important to note that if you earn over the €14,000 threshold the entire amount is then taxable. Also, the scheme does not cover short term guests as the rental use must be for residential purposes only.

Hosting Power and the Rent-A-Room Relief Scheme

Hosting Power provides accommodation exclusively with 3rd Level or Postgrad students booking their accommodation for their entire stay in Dublin or in Cork, which ensures that our hosts qualify under the Rent-a-room relief scheme.
